Guest guest Posted May 11, 2000 Report Share Posted May 11, 2000 Anyone know if there is anything I can do to temporarily toddler proof the computer, whilst I eg go to the loo, so that I don't come back and find a small boy defacing the newsletter or whatever else I'm working on. At present I have to switch everything off and turn it off at the wall each time, otherwise he jumps straight on.
